A drama unfolded in April between DJ Vlad and Larsa Pippen after Vlad blamed her for Marcus Jordan's legal troubles. This occurred while Vlad was interviewing NBA player Gilbert Arenas. Recently, a clip of Pippen went viral on June 8, where she called Vlad a "loser" while appearing on The Jason Lee Show.

Meanwhile, Vlad took to X, formerly known as Twitter, on June 9,

"Dear Larsa Pippen: I'll stop talking about you in interviews if you remove "Pippen" from your last name and go back to "Larsa Younan". Deal?"

In the interview, Pippen had previously accused Vlad of asking about her to athletes in a negative way. Also, for those who are unfamiliar, Larsa's maiden name is Larsa Younan. She acquired the last name "Pippen" after marrying former basketball small forward Scottie Pippen. The former couple was married from 1999 until 2021, when the divorce was finalized.

Scottie and Larsa share four children together: Scotty Jr., Preston, Justin, and Sophia. From 2022 to 2024, Larsa Pippen was reportedly in a relationship with Marcus Jordan, son of Michael Jordan. As of now, Larsa has not responded to the latest tweet posted by DJ Vlad.

In Vlad's interview with Arenas from April 2025, Arenas made a similar comment about Larsa dropping her last name "Pippen." In the interview, Arenas spoke about Marcus Jordan and said:

"Like he was just a normal Michael Jordan kid, just being rich and wholesome. And then you get your grips on him—them h*e-ish fingers. That Larsa, can you please drop the good Pippen name."

Arenas agreed to DJ Vlad, believing that Larsa Pippen was somehow to blame for Marcus' legal troubles.

In April 2025, People confirmed that Larsa Pippen was romantically involved with former pro basketball player Jeff Coby. This news arose a few months after reports of her relationship with Marcus Jordan.

According to People, in 2016, when the former couple first filed for divorce, she reportedly became involved with Future. The TV personality discussed this during a February 2021 interview on Hollywood Unlocked. Reflecting on those moments, Larsa said:

"It was a lot of guilt that I felt and he (Future) was the guy that was there to see me go through it and he was the guy that I would talk to when I was kinda, like, dealing with things."

In November 2020, Larsa Pippen appeared on the Hollywood Raw podcast and revealed that during her first separation, she also had a fling with NBA player Tristan Thompson.

Coby and Larsa even made their red carpet debut in April while attending the premiere of The Accountant 2 in LA.

Although Larsa and Scottie Pippen finalized their divorce in 2021, they originally filed for it back in 2018.
